My 450g Show Tank

Thanks for the compliments everyone!
Patience is key. I advise to start saving money now though, big tanks and big fish are pricey. I spend more on my fish than I do the rest of my pets combined.
Yeah, I should set up a flash, but I get lazy. I doubt I'll make any changes for awhile. Right now, I'm trying to figure out a way to keep the bottom pipes covered. I shouldn't have rushed it and painted them before putting them in the tank. The rocks on top just aren't cutting it, but I have a few ideas.
The powerheads aimed up work really well. It creates enough water movement to keep the debris off the bottom without shooting sand everywhere. The fish don't seem to mind either.
I should do a video/pictures not at feeding time, so I can actually show how clear the water is.

I think you might have missed a few pages. The blankets were used when I moved it so I didn't scratch it on the trailer.

Thanks! I looked at your build thread a lot when I was setting up mine. Unfortunately, I'm not nearly as talented and mine is a complete mess.
Nah man it looks fine...SpeshulEd;4085381; said:

It's all in what you leave in the pic to see...
